IMAX Theater
Intramuros Walking Tour
The holidays here in Manila have been a lot of fun. We had a wonderful Christmas and a fun New
Years. With Edi not having to work, we
were able to venture out and see a couple tourist attractions. First, we had
our first movie experience over the holiday.
We went to see The Hobbit:
Destruction of Smaug. We saw it in
the IMAX Theater, and it was in 3D…
It was a great tour, very informative and entertaining. It was a really fun way to learn about the
history of Manila…
The tour began at Fort Santiago and ended right across the
street from San Agustin Church. There
was actually a wedding in the church, so we couldn’t go in; we just had to look
in from the back. It was beautiful…
While in the courtyard of this charming building, Carlos our
guide gave everyone dessert – the national Filipino dessert called Halo Halo
which literally means mix. It was very
different, but good. It is a milky, icy
sweet dessert with gelatin cubes, puffed rice, mango, and I don’t know what
else…
We were each given a souvenir poster as we left…
The tour is a must if you come to Manila!
